Retrofit Opportunity
A residential site with fossil-fuel heating that is a candidate for a heat pump, insulation and other SEAI-supported energy upgrades.
Ireland's retrofit programme is moving homes away from oil and gas toward heat pumps, better insulation and improved airtightness, with grant support from the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI). Homes still on fossil-fuel heating are the natural targets. A retrofit opportunity is a residential record where the heating and building characteristics point to a likely upgrade candidate.
For heat-pump installers, insulation contractors and energy suppliers, the hard part is finding the homes that still need the work. Filtering to fossil-fuel-heated residential stock focuses effort where the SEAI-backed demand actually is.
PlanningLeads flags residential leads whose heating type points to a retrofit candidate, aggregated at area level with no personal data - the Retrofit feed.

Common questions
Typically fossil-fuel heating (oil or gas) plus building characteristics that suggest heat-pump, insulation or airtightness upgrades would apply.
Yes - many of these upgrades are supported by SEAI home-energy grants, which is a large part of what drives the demand.
No - retrofit signals are handled at property and area level, without individual contact details.
